I hope you are sharing and working with the Minnesota DNR. They need to start following your lead if we want this fishery to remain prestigious for generations to come. The winter fishing being done on the South end is atrocious to say the least.

I am a 67 year old man who has fished Lake of the Woods since childhood. Anybody who does not see these new restrictions as being necessary, are only fooling themselves. Lire davantage

I find it interesting that there would be a restriction on the number and size of fish that a sportsman can catch when there's no regulations on the amount or size of fish natives can catch by netting. Lire davantage

I support the preferred proposal. I think it strikes a balance between allowing sport fishers to still enjoy the fishery , while still reducing the overall harvest. Lire davantage

With this proposed change(s), have you considered the massive impact that it will have on surrounding small bodies of water that have already been experiencing a much heavier amount of angling? Lire davantage

Understand the stress on LoW and the walleye population. My concern is on the increased pressure that will occur on the smaller lakes. With reduced quotas on the “big” lake many anglers will turn to smaller lakes that have more vulnerable walleye populations. Lire davantage

Compared to even five years ago the walleye fishing is terrible. Bigger 19 - 26 inch fish are definitely far far fewer and the population is now composed of 12” - 16” walleye. Lire davantage

What about commercial fishing? I have seen nets left in for long periods of time and then the fishermen pulling up and throwing dead fish away many times. I am 71 and have been fishing since I was a teenager . I do not fish much any more but fishing seems better now than it was years ago. Lire davantage

A Minnesota resident who endorses the proactive plan. Just do it. It’s something that needs to be implemented on the MN side of LOW. Lire davantage

Please do up to date creel surveys. I know the 2017/18 surveys weren’t done correctly. The gps coordinates sent from elsewhere were in areas that don’t hold walleye. The fish population on the lake is much better than it was 30+ years ago. Lire davantage

YOU CANT CONTROL THE USA FISHING RULES OR THE NATIVE FISHERY SO YOU TARGET ONLY RECREATIONAL FISHERMEN??. TOO BAD EVERYONE CANT GET ON BOARD BUT HOPEFULLY THAT IS ENOUGH TO SAVE THE LAKE FROM GETTING WORSE. LOTW IS THE MOST IMPORTANT FISHERY IN THE NW!

In stead of lowering the limit, I propose that the official opening date be moved into June. My husband and I are avid fisher people and we have stopped fishing until the middle of June as we were finding that we were catching fish that still had eggs. Give the spawn a chance to be completed.

My opinion on this proposal is that it would drastically challenge the businesses in the tourism industry on lake of the woods. Maybe a size restriction would be best suited. Lire davantage

So the American limit is 6 and the "harvesting card" limit stays at it's level but the recreational fisherman that pays for their license gets cut in half. For "unforeseen pressures" your words not mine.

Hello. I am in complete agreement that some kind of meaningful action needs to be taken in regards to management of the walleye sport fishing resource on LOTW. I have been fishing on LOTW for 30 plus years, and in that time I have seen significant changes. Lire davantage

As a former City of Kenora employee, employed at the Transfer Station I witnessed on a monthly basis the Ministry workers coming up to dispose of abandoned fishing nets. I found this to be such a travesty and such a needless waste of all different species of fish. Lire davantage

Iam all for reductions if everyone suffers. I don’t see anything about reducing limits that would affect native population or camp owners. Will nets be discontinued. What’s good for one is good for all.
